The Life Of Ralphy - Life Under Obama

May 7, 2012

Dear Mr. President,

It’s been quite a while since I have written to you but
lately, I’ve been a little disturbed reading about the life of this mythical (like your composite New York girlfriend), entitlement dependent, Julia who is the new poster chick for
life under your reign.

Well sir, I have been around almost as long as your NEW imaginary
girlfriend and I have a much different view of America where we are all free to make our own way without your help.

Here is My Life; I call it “The Life of
Ralphy” and mine is REAL.

At Age 4,

Under President Dwight D. Eisenhower, my mother enrolled me
in a preschool (we called them nursery schools in those days) because she
worked part-time. It wasn’t because I
needed a” Head Start” to be ready for kindergarten; nobody I knew needed a head
start for kindergarten. That was the job
of parents. We all got our head starts
at home with our mothers who taught us songs, nursery rhymes, how to tie our
shoes, how to count and add, and the alphabet.
And our fathers were there when discipline was needed. Nursery schools were private and my parents
paid the price for child care without government assistance. Under President Eisenhower, this nation had a
robust work ethic, a respect for God and a competitive atmosphere which encouraged
self-reliance. We didn’t need no stinkin’
state-run programs to indoctrinate innocent children with socialistic ideas.

At Age 8,

During Eisenhower’s second term, I got my first job. My parents didn’t even know I had it until my
mother found me selling newspapers in the grocery store. Under an Obama presidency, an eight-year-old
has a snowball’s chance in a hot place of finding employment. And even teens can’t be employed without
getting permission from bureaucrats; what’s that all about? Well my parents allowed me to continue my job
(one of many I had as a child) because they knew it was good for me. I earned my own money. And I bought my own stuff. It wasn’t much but my boss paid me in silver
coins which actually had some value unlike the worthless slugs you call money
today.

At Age 17

I took my SAT tests and was well-prepared for college
without any College and Career ready standards.
Why? Because when I went to
school, we learned how to read and write and count and think. Teachers didn’t waste their time on
multicultural, PC, revisionist history, tree-hugging, America hating,
how-to-stretch-a-condom on a Green banana, happycrap.

At Age 18

I enrolled in a community college. I worked part-time as a cook at a hamburger
stand, I swept the sidewalks at my school campus, and I worked as a night-time
janitor to pay the tuition costs and buy my books because that’s what
responsible, self-reliant people do. At
graduation I didn’t have any student loan debt and if I did, I never would have
considered defaulting on it and leaving the tax-payers holding the bag. Nor would I expect the taxpayers to just give
it to me.

At Age 21

Just a few months after our marriage, my wife and I bought
our first house. It wasn’t new and it
wasn’t big but it was ours. We saved
enough for a 10% down-payment and qualified for a loan on the merits of my
$400.00 per month income. That’s what
responsible, self-reliant people used to do before you were around to help.

At Age 23

Unlike Julie, I didn’t need surgery but my wife and I were expecting our
first daughter. We paid for our own visits
to her doctor and we began to save the money that would be required for the birth
at the local hospital. The day we checked
out with our baby in tow, we wrote the check. And when our
second daughter was born, we did the same.
Those were the days when, without any government interference in our health care, it
was actually affordable to most working people.

Under your administration, no one can afford it. And catastrophic health insurance was
affordable then too. Frankly I think life was
much better before your massive expansion of the Nanny State in every aspect of
our lives.

At Age 26

I started my own business.
I started small, worked hard, bought my own equipment, and paid my own
way. When the business grew, I hired
help. I got no aid from the government
and I liked it that way.

At Age 30

We made the decision to enroll both our children in
Christian schools. It was expensive and
difficult. My wife started her own
business just to pay tuition but it was worth it. We wanted our girls to grow up to become
conservative Christian ladies. Fat
chance of that ever happening in the cesspool of godless, government controlled liberal indoctrination centers.
And guess what? Now that they are
grown, they vote (not for you).

At Age 48

I was employed as the CEO of a private non-profit Christian ministry
providing housing and care for the elderly.
For several years businesses, throughout the industry, flourished. During the last three years, under your
administration, increasing regulations and an economic recession have caused a
rapid increase in costs and a massive decline in clientele. But, because none of us
are “too big to fail,” our businesses are struggling and many have closed.

So here I am at Age 64

I really had hoped for a few more years of employment but
now, under your reign, I have become unemployed (Sorry Chief, “unemployed” refers
to the people you count in your phony unemployment numbers) I am one of those
whom you have described as “not working.”
The upside to my “not working” is that I am NOT paying any more income
taxes.

I have applied, early, for my Social Security benefit (yes
it is mine; I earned it, the government took it from me without my permission,
and made a promise to me that it is locked away safely and it is mine).

It’s a fine predicament we’re in here under your Obama
Administration. I’m “not working,” my
home value has plummeted, my savings account is devaluing rapidly due to your
non-stop printing of worthless currency, the cost of goods and services are
increasing due to inflation, our constitutional rights are being systematically
stripped away, lawlessness abounds, and your administration has no desire to
protect the citizens of the United States.

But there still remains Hope and Change for me, I still have the right to vote.

So At Age 65

I intend to do it early and often and I HOPE
we, the people, CHANGE presidents.

Yes, I did send it to the White House. I have written about two dozen letters to Obama and sent them personally via U.S. Postal Service. Every one of them have been archived here on my blog. You can find most of them in the category, "Letters to Obama."

About Me

Most people don’t care who I am or what I do. For the most part, people really only care about what others think. The best way to know me is to know what I think. What I think is influenced by my conservative, fundamentalist, Christian world-view.
This blog is an expression of my ideas and opinions that derive from that world-view and the publication of my ideas is protected by the First Amendment. It is intentionally provocative, probably annoying, and often wrapped in satirical and sometimes sarcastic wit.
Many people will pretend that they don’t care about what I think but deep down inside, I know they really do! They want to know if my opinions agree with theirs. If so, they will like me. If not, they should just ignore me and go away but they probably won’t. They will creep around on my blog just to see what kind of things they can find about which to be outraged and critical, not on merit or substance, but on my insensitive humor or politically incorrect audacity. They may attack me with anonymous comments or hate mail. But that's OK. I will just continue laffing at things I find absurd.

MARRIAGE

And the Lord God said, “It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him.”

And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. 22 Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man.

And Adam said:

“This is now bone of my bonesAnd flesh of my flesh;She shall be called Woman,Because she was taken out of Man.”

Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.

Genesis 2:18, 21, 23-24

Jesus said, “Haven’t you read that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’ and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’? So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”

Matthew 19:4-6

Marriage was created and defined by God and confirmed by Jesus. End of Argument.

"I am quite certain that, if God had not chosen me, I should never have chosen Him; and I am sure He chose me before I was born, or else He never would have chosen me afterwards; and He must have elected me for reasons unknown to me, for I never could find any reason in myself why He should have looked upon me with special love."
